  • Multiple users on a single computer/synching device to more than one iTunes

    Sorry if this has been asked before -- seems like it would be a common question. Our family has three iTunes users, and we each run off our own laptop, but there's a lot of overlap in the library and it's a huge waste of disk space. I'd like to achieve two things:
    1. Have a single copy of a music file even if it's in all three libraries
    2. Avoid having to go into three separate iTunes accounts to add new music to each one -- I just want to add it once and have it available to all three users
    So can I do this: have a new iTunes account on the central desk computer, and have that iTunes hold all our music. Everybody maintains their own playlists on that one central iTunes. If we sync our iPhones/iPods to that computer, we just sync music, and we pick up our playlists. If we sync to our laptops, we sync podcasts and so on and don't sync music because there won't be music on those laptops. Will that work? Or can I not sync my iPhone to more than one iTunes?
    Thanks for any help

    Welcome to AD!
    Here is an article on using multiple ipods. I suggest method 1 and steer clear of method 3.

    For your point #1, sharing music on same PC between users, put it in a shared library & set permissions as directed here

    For #2, itunes doesn't have the capability to monitor folders for new content. You'll need to get something like the free program 'itunes folder watch'.

    How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. The only way is for you to have a separate user account to log into on that computer.

  • My itunes library has organically grown from more than one itunes account but all now on a separate computer.  If I upgrade to iTunes match will I have to pay for each account?

    My itunes library has organically grown from more than one itunes account (all paid for by me) but all now on a separate computer.  If I upgrade to iTunes match will I have to pay for each account or just once, for the computer?

    No.  Provided the computer that you use to upload / match your Songs is authorised to play all of the Songs all works well - once complete you can download Song files that will play on your libraries / other computers without each computer having to be authorised.

    Hi Zhang Bin
    You can create one order from multiple  notification, but you cannot create multiple order from one notification.
    Exmaple- You can select all notification in IW28, and create one order. All these notification will appear in object list of order.

  • Can you have more than one itune account on one computer?

    I am wondering if you can have more than one iTunes account on one computer?

    Yes, that's possible.
    Do you mean two different Store accounts or two different iTunes libraries? (Either is doable.)

  • Can I register more than one iTunes account on my Apple TV

    Hi all, am I able to set up more than one iTunes account on my Apple TV? My flatmate and I have different files on our computers, so we'd like to have both of our stuff on Apple TV. Is there a way that we can either register both of us or just switch between the users?
    Thanks

    Your question states that you already have an tv, so I'll restrict the answer to the current model only. You also ask if you can both have stuff ON the tv, from which I then assume you are asking if you can sync from both computers to the tv which you can't.
    Only one computer can provide the primary library and sync content to an tv, you can of course set the other computer up to provide a secondary library and stream content to the tv from it when it is on with itunes running.

  • Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine?

    I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
    But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.
    Regards.

  • How do you sync more than one itune at a time to your ipad?

    how do you sync more than one itune at a time to your ipad?

    Not sure what you mean?
    More than one song?
    You can sync with one and only one computer/itunes library at a time.  If you sync to another it will erase the current content.

    If its multiple apple id's on one computer you can't because you have to log out of one and login on another.
    I've only got one ID so I can't test but Winston says you can be signed into iTunes with multiple AppleIDs (i.e authorise iTunes for more than one ID content) at the same time, and that even different account content will stream so long as Home Sharing ID in iTunes matches AppleTV Home Sharing ID.

  • HT3819 Why can't I use my apple TV to share more than one iTunes account?

    My partner and I both have seperate iTunes accounts, understandably. And we both use our appleTV, understandably. Why can't we set up apple TV to play music / watch shows from both of our computers? I hope this is not because I haven't read the manual.

    You CAN use the ATV to share more than one iTunes library. Homesharing however require you to use the SAME apple ID on both computer. I have homesharing turned on both my girlfriend and my computer with me signed in on both computers and the ATV. Both itunes librarie show up on the ATV as long as both computer are ON.

  • Can a PC have more than one iTunes account on it?

    Can a home PC have more than one iTunes account on it?  What happens if I log into my iTunes account on someone else's PC?  I don't have access to my own PC and want to download more music onto my gear.

    1. Yes. Use separate user accounts on the computer; if desired, you can instead launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and create a new iTunes library, but this won't have separate preferences.
    2. Nothing will happen to the existing content. If you're syncing an iPhone, iPod, or iPad, click here.
